Hardik was with his father when he took the last breathe while brother Krunal was with the Baroda side for the Syed Mushtaq Ali trophy. Krunal later left the bio bubble to return home. “Yes, Krunal Pandya has left the bubble. It is a personal tragedy, Baroda Cricket Association mourns this loss of Hardik and Krunal,” Baroda Cricket Association CEO Shishir Hattangadi told ANI.
Hardik's father, in an interview, had said that whenever he talks about his sons, he does get emotional. “Whenever I speak about Hardik and Krunal, I cannot control my tears and that they have done so well is God’s gift. Our intentions of letting them play cricket from a very young age was questioned and criticized by many relatives. But we were not willing to change our plans, and it is great to see what they have achieved now,” Himanshu Pandya had earlier told MI TV in an interview.
